''SIP SIP SIMPLE client SDK'' is a Software Development Kit for easy development of Real Time Applications based on SIP and related protocols for media transport like Presence, Audio and Audio, Instant Messaging (IM). (IM), File Transfers and Desktop Sharing. Other media types can be easily added by using an extensible high-level API.
The software has undergone in the past years several interoperability tests at [http://www.sipit.net SIPIT] and today is of industry strength quality. The SIP stack is provided by [http://www.pjsip.org PJSIP].
The library has cross platform capabilities on Linux OS, Mac OSX (Leopard and Snow Leopard) and Microsoft Windows (roadmap). The library should work with minimal changes on any platform that supports C and Python development environments.
To see ''SIP SIMPLE client SDK'' features in action you can try [http://icanblink.com Blink]. Blink], a fully featured and easy to use SIP client.
== General Features ==
* Written in Python Programming Language
* Non-blocking Asynchronous API
* TLS Security for both signaling (SIP) and media planes (MSRP, XCAP)
* Multiple SIP Accounts support
* Multiple Media Types per Session (e.g. Audio + Instant Messaging + Desktop Sharing)
* Trace capability for all underlying protocols
* High level Highly integrated middleware with including a configuration framework

The library uses a separated from the core lookup mechanism for the next hop routing. This important feature allows the library to be used for building SIP clients that operate in combination with any SIP provider (by employing RFC 3263 DNS lookups), in a server-less LAN operation (using Bonjour protocol) or integrated into a network overlay developed by a third party (e.g. P2PSIP overlay).
